H-Sets: Hessian-Guided Discovery of Set-Level Feature Interactions in Image Classifiers
Ayushi Mehrotra, Dipkamal Bhusal, Michael Clifford +1
Feature attribution methods explain the predictions of deep neural networks by assigning importance scores to individual input features. However, most existing methods focus solely…
Training for Trustworthy Saliency Maps: Adversarial Training Meets Feature-Map Smoothing
Dipkamal Bhusal, Md Tanvirul Alam, Nidhi Rastogi
Gradient-based saliency methods such as Vanilla Gradient (VG) and Integrated Gradients (IG) are widely used to explain image classifiers, yet the resulting maps are often noisy and…
SPHINX: A Synthetic Environment for Visual Perception and Reasoning
Md Tanvirul Alam, Saksham Aggarwal, Justin Yang Chae +1
We present Sphinx, a synthetic environment for visual perception and reasoning that targets core cognitive primitives. Sphinx procedurally generates puzzles using motifs, tiles, ch…
FACE: Faithful Automatic Concept Extraction
Dipkamal Bhusal, Michael Clifford, Sara Rampazzi +1
Interpreting deep neural networks through concept-based explanations offers a bridge between low-level features and high-level human-understandable semantics. However, existing aut…
Concept-Based Masking: A Patch-Agnostic Defense Against Adversarial Patch Attacks
Ayushi Mehrotra, Derek Peng, Dipkamal Bhusal +1
Adversarial patch attacks pose a practical threat to deep learning models by forcing targeted misclassifications through localized perturbations, often realized in the physical wor…
Do Sparse Subnetworks Exhibit Cognitively Aligned Attention? Effects of Pruning on Saliency Map Fidelity, Sparsity, and Concept Coherence
Sanish Suwal, Dipkamal Bhusal, Michael Clifford +1
Prior works have shown that neural networks can be heavily pruned while preserving performance, but the impact of pruning on model interpretability remains unclear. In this work, w…
Smaller is Better: Enhancing Transparency in Vehicle AI Systems via Pruning
Sanish Suwal, Shaurya Garg, Dipkamal Bhusal +2
Connected and autonomous vehicles continue to heavily rely on AI systems, where transparency and security are critical for trust and operational safety. Post-hoc explanations provi…
Learning to Look: Cognitive Attention Alignment with Vision-Language Models
Ryan L. Yang, Dipkamal Bhusal, Nidhi Rastogi
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) frequently "cheat" by exploiting superficial correlations, raising concerns about whether they make predictions for the right reasons. Inspired…
